This scares me.

So I just picked up an electric flame scallop last night, and it had some long string like hair things attached to the shell, and now I come home from work to see a bunch attached to the glass near it. Randomly up to 12 inches away from the scallop. And oddly I can no longer directly post pics from the app, so here's links to photos, you can barely see them on the shell but there's like one or two towards the bottom right ish.

I have no idea what these things are, but it seems like a string, with a foot, almost like the scallops foot but very small.
Any info would greatly help

Are they a brown tube like body

 

[reefermadness55]

No. One of the pics is a close up of the little guys there string like and don't have much of a way to filter feed it seems, but from the other end it's like a thinner flatter part of the string

The string catches food most likely but I cant see the pictures it wont let me unless I have a google account

 

[reefermadness55]

Ghetto, I'll find a way to post em for you, one sec..

Oh wow. No clue

After looking closer, I see that it attempts to attach both sides to objects. Both ends of this strange string have strange white ends that attach to things.

Go here. This is a great link and maybe with a closer look at yours you can id them.
Either way I would get them out, you can never be too safe

[reefermadness55]

Definitely not spaghetti worms, but they might be some kind of worm (probably ate but I don't think they are any on that list :/

 

[BigRedSquid]

[BigRedSquid]
